Kitchen decoration tile laying skills

Tiles create a kitchen atmosphere

The kitchen can choose a set of fancy tiles, embellished with a dull wall, and create a lively and lively atmosphere for the housewife. At present, most of the fancy tiles on the market are imported from Europe. Some of them mainly focus on art and fashion styles, and some focus on the fun of nature. Generally, a set of six, ten or twelve pieces is very distinctive. Most of the tiles from Europe have been created by different designers. The imported brands have a limited number of styles for each style, so they are very reserved. BARDELLI, APPIANI, VERSACE and other brands have a strong taste of fashion, and the tiles are more than just ceramic tiles. It takes hundreds of dollars or even thousands of dollars to buy back a few "tile art" seamlessly connected to your kitchen space, which is a painting. Imported fancy tiles are more suitable for kitchens of more than 10 square meters, in order to show the complete set of display effects, the price is also very expensive, generally one piece is even more than one hundred yuan.

When choosing tiles, it is more important to have the concept of “decoration” of tiles. A wall tile looks beautiful on its own: the background is simple and the pattern is bright. After repeatedly laying a wall, it is often dazzling, messy, and the visual impact is too intense. Therefore, the choice of tiles also needs to be based on "decoration". Consumers can also refer to the business model imitation with a shaped legend, or let the merchants give professional advice and consultation according to your creativity, and the number of merchants providing such consulting services has increased.

If the kitchen area is slightly smaller and you want the wallet not to be too hurt, you can choose the domestic first-line brand tiles. Like Omega's “I love the kitchen” series, the color and pattern are designed by Italian designers, trying to create a romantic and casual cooking atmosphere. The price is relatively affordable. One or two 30 yuan can be set up. The personality is called out. Owners who like to go online may also go to the online tile store to search for rich design legends, Taotao cute Dongdong, and another choice channel.

How much is the tile used?

The most important thing to buy ceramic tiles is to buy brand bricks. Some small manufacturers rely on low production costs to fight crazy price wars. I don't know how to save money for a while, I bought a tile that is not wearable by small manufacturers. After one year, the surface of the brick is streaked, cracked and unsightly. Spend money to re-lay the bricks. Once the various electric and gas pipelines have been laid, it is not easy to move it. Secondly, the messy and noisy of the second decoration has disturbed the whole family. The most terrible thing is that some small manufacturers are low-cost, and the products they produce are not environmentally friendly. These “poison sources” on the wall and on the ground threaten people's health every day. Therefore, consumers are advised to choose brand bricks. The price of domestic first-line brand ceramic tiles is not expensive, and a kitchen of more than ten square meters can be messed up in a thousand dollars. Generally, domestic first-line brand tiles such as Omega, Nobel, and champions are all healthy and environmentally friendly building materials. For example, Omega's products have to be subjected to secondary high-temperature calcination for more than 200 minutes. The water absorption rate of the product is extremely low, and the pores on the brick surface are so small that it is difficult to infiltrate the stains. It is much more convenient to wait for the tiles to serve.

The floor tiles sold on the market are generally between 300×300 mm and 500×500 mm, mostly subjected to anti-slip treatment, and the surface is divided into matte and polished. According to the place of origin, it can be divided into import, joint venture and domestic production. The imported floor tiles are mostly in Spain and Italy. Because the floor tiles are different in the production process and the technology of material selection, the price is also very different. The price of domestic floor tiles is generally around 40-80 yuan/square meter; the price of joint-venture products is generally between 80-150 yuan/square meter; the price of imported brands is about 150-230 yuan/square meter.

The back of the cabinet should also be covered with tiles.

Many families now buy sets of cabinets. Don't think that the space behind the cabinet is invisible anyway, let the wall be exposed, but the tile should be covered behind the cabinet. The tile is the best protection for the waterproof layer on the kitchen wall; secondly, the tile will greatly reduce the erosion of the kitchen moisture on the cabinet and prevent the cabinet from being moldy. Some ceramic tiles, such as the Spanish ceramic tile, Omega ceramic tile, RAK ceramic tile, etc., are equipped with moisture-proof and acid-proof functions according to the characteristics of the kitchen, which are more suitable for the complex environment of the kitchen. Thirdly, due to the different tile specifications, the cabinet floor does not necessarily match the brick joint. . If there is a tile on the back of the cabinet, you don't have to slap it to make it look good.

Kitchen tile material selection should be attentive

Tiles are available in a variety of materials, including glazed tiles, whole bricks, polished tiles, vitrified tiles, and mosaics. In large spaces such as kitchens, the preferred ones are smooth or matt glazed tiles, which are very convenient to clean and can also create a "fashion" effect. At present, many brands have colorful matt glazed tiles for consumers to choose. In general, ladies will like the color of the light, like the lightness of the Spanish series of the Chinese building materials or the fruit of the Patrick fruit, while the men will love the subtle fashion of the Omega antique series, but also with a strong Italian style.

The floor tile material is best to choose a matte surface to prevent the kitchen soup from slipping the ground, which is a safety problem. Therefore, the choice of floor tile slip is the first.
